No one started Monday's thread yet? Or am I missing something?

Well, I’m back from vacation! I had one of the best times EVER.

However, I’m going to estimate that I gained about 4 pounds! And I don’t think I’m exaggerating.

My week went as planned until Thursday. The first half of my vacation was spent at the beach. We didn’t do any major meals out. We had sandwiches at the beach house for lunch, pasta for dinner and cereal for breakfast. I ran at the beach in the mornings. Not bad. I was within my points range every day.

But then – we went to New Orleans. And food was the least of my problems. I drank prob 100 points worth of alcohol. At least! I had hurricanes, frozen daiquiris, you name it, I drank it. I mean, I had a blast… but I’m sure the alcohol will show up tomorrow when I weigh in. I’m just hoping to stay under 160. That’s all I can hope for at this point.

I’ll be very happy if the damage isn’t as bad as I think…. But I’m beginning to worry it might be worse than I think also.

I really had a good time and don’t regret it though. I even met a couple nice boys! Of course they live in the South, so it’s really irrelevant anyway. But it was fun to meet guys.

Missed you girls lots!!!

Hey Lisa, I was ready to start the thread since no one had... but then you did. This place was very quiet last week. Don't know if people are just lurking or if we lost them! Glad you had fun on vacation. I gained 3 pounds on my Nov. vacation, but it was well worth it. If you get back on track now, it will come off quickly!!

I hurt my foot somehow and don't even know when or what I did. I woke up saturday to a swollen and painful foot. It is feeling better today, but no exercise till it is more healed. I was in major pain Sat.!! We took Emma to Ice Age and for a 17 month old, she was GREAT! She LOVES popcorn!

Tonight Emma and I are going to a meeting together... YIKES. Hubby is busy, so it's Emma and I, but it is an informal meeting and it is right after work, so things should be OK!

Come out and Play!!

Lisa: I bet you'll be fine at WW. The important thing is that you had fun! A few years ago, my sister and I went to Jamaica for a week. We ate sensibly, but drank like little fishies. When I weighed in the following week, I only gained .6!

Hi Jen!

Well, my car search continues. This weekend I test drove a Hyundai Sante Fe, a Suzuki Grand Vitara and a Volkswagon Cabrio. I LOVED the Cabrio. Loved it, loved it, loved it. But I know it is oh-so-impractical. How could BF and I go camping with two dogs in that little thing? What about the hot summers in Virginia during which I wouldn't want the top down, I'd want AC? So I'm still considering SUVs. The Escape and the Sante Fe are my front runners.

As for weight issues ... let's just say I haven't been paying attention. I didn't make WI Thursday because of work (I think I need to find a new time, again!), and Saturday ... whoa, buddy. It was that awards banquet I told you girls about. Dinner was steak and salmon, with cheesecake for dessert! And I had quite a few drinks, too! The party my paper hosted lasted until 2 a.m. and it was a blast. (I was on the committee) I danced and danced and my thighs felt it Sunday! It was a great night.

Well, I'm off to look at cars, again. Hello everyone out there! Come chat!

OK, this is getting pathetic. HELLLLLOOOOO Where is everyone?? Sad thing, I turn 30 in 2 months and I wonder what to do?? Is anyone besides Kim and Lisa out there????

Jeepers, just a month ago we were hoppin'.

Well, I am having an OK day. Trying to stay on track amidst the stress of work. Have a super HUGE headache.

Golly Jeepers! It sure is quiet!! All of Oklahoma is on Spring Break right now, so rush hour is nothing and there are tons of good spots in the parking garage at work!
My boss is at a conference until Friday, but I still have the web-filter! Yuck! From what I understand, it's there for good.
Ooops! Dinner is ready!
Hi Lisa, Kim and Jen!!
Jen: Do you reccomend Ice Age?

Hi girls! After a very busy day I finally made it on here (now that the day is almost over!) I have had a HUGE headache all day today It has finally decreased to a bearable level. It made the day extra long. I had a fairly relaxing weekend. I had problems sleeping again last night so I am wiped out today. Hopefully tonight will be better. I ate over my points today I didn't plan my day out very well & by the time supper rolled around I only had a few points & I was ravenous because I worked so hard today. Oh well I'll make up for it tomorrow. Anyway just thought I'd drop in before I head off to bed. I'll talk to you all tomorrow
